Welcome to Lettsom Gardens
Lettsom Gardens is a community garden in Camberwell,
London SE5. It is bordered by Grove Park to the north
and Grove Hill Road to the south. All local people are
warmly welcomed to become members if they would like to.
The gardens are especially enjoyed by people who live in
flats and don’t have gardens of their own. The gardens
are run by a charity, Lettsom Gardens Association, and
access is with a key and an annual membership.
The space is divided between woodland, allotments and a
tarmac sports pitch. Between the three of them they
create a well used community utility. A small area of
grass hosts many a picnic after school in the summer,
and there is also a large wooden swing.
The allotments on the site are managed by a separate
organisation: see Lettsom
Allotments Association for details.
The gardens have one major open day during the year
which is a a bonfire night on the nearest weekend to
November the 5th. It is a well attended local event.
Please take time to look over the rules for the gardens
and should you wish to join up follow the instructions
in the Membership section
of this site.
Welcome again to Lettsom Gardens, and we hope you love
the gardens as much as we do. With all good wishes, The
LGA Trustees
